Splatoon 3, like the previous games in the franchise, is a competitive third-person shooter. Team up with a group of up to four players to defeat a rival team using a variety of weapons that can spread ink around the battlefield. The first team to cover more of the map with their color of ink wins.
A Story Mode campaign called Return of the Mammalians will be available for those who prefer a singleplayer experience.
Splatoon 3, as the name implies, is the third game in the Splatoon series and inherits many of its gameplay mechanics from its predecessors. The first game in the series, Splatoon, was released back in 2015 for Wii U, while Splatoon 2 released in 2017 also for the Nintendo Switch.
